Starting To Say Good Bye

                                    

Yesterday we spent the day watching the Royal Wedding of William & Kate.  Barbara & David invited several people to their suite at 10:00 in the morning to watch everyone arrive followed by the ceremony at 11:00.  Being British, and staunch Royalists, they were very excited about the marriage and wanted to share the experience.  We stayed for 2 hours then went to the “most traveled passengers” luncheon hosted by the captain.  At our table were Lance & Bill, Mark & Andrea and Michele…great table. When we got back they were just repeating what everyone had already seen.  That evening Barbara had a “farwell” party and invited about 20 people.  The choir had their final performance at 8:00 and sang "we'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when," there wasn’t a dry eye in the place.

Exactly 1 week from today we will be home...can't believe it.  Atmosphere on the ship has changed everyone is exchanging addresses, phone numbers & e-mail addresses.  Only one sea day left (Monday) then we will be in port every day until we leave in Rome.   I have packed 3/4 of one suitcase and Gary the same.  This isn't the fun part, especially trying to fit in 4 months of  souveniers.
